Hematological Changes: DUVYZAT can cause dose-related thrombocytopenia and other signs of myelosuppression, including anemia and neutropenia. Monitor platelets; dosage adjustment or discontinuation may be needed. ( 2.3 , 5.1 ) Increased Triglycerides: An increase in triglycerides can occur; dosage modification may be needed. Discontinuation may be needed. ( 2.3 , 5.2 ) Gastrointestinal Disturbances: Adjust dosage if moderate or severe diarrhea occurs. Antiemetics or antidiarrheal medications may be considered during treatment with DUVYZAT. Discontinue DUVYZAT if the symptoms persist. ( 2.3 , 5.3 ) QTc Prolongation: Avoid use of DUVYZAT in patients who are at an increased risk for ventricular arrhythmias. ( 2.1 , 5.4 , 7.2 ) DUVYZAT can cause dose-related thrombocytopenia and other signs of myelosuppression, including decreased hemoglobin and neutropenia. In Study 1 [see Clinical Studies (14) ] , thrombocytopenia occurred in 33% of patients treated with DUVYZAT compared to no patients on placebo. The maximum decrease in platelets occurred within the first 2 months of therapy and remained low throughout the course of therapy. In a few patients, thrombocytopenia was associated with bleeding events including epistaxis, hematoma or contusions. Low platelet counts resulted in DUVYZAT dose reduction in 28% of patients. Patients with baseline platelet counts below the lower limit of normal were excluded from the study. Decreased hemoglobin and decreased neutrophils were also observed in patients treated with DUVYZAT compared to placebo. Monitor blood counts every 2 weeks for the first 2 months of treatment, then monthly for the first 3 months, and every 3 months thereafter. Modify the dosage of DUVYZAT for confirmed thrombocytopenia [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . Treatment should be permanently discontinued if the abnormalities worsen despite dose modification. If a patient develops signs or symptoms of thrombocytopenia, obtain a platelet count as soon as possible, and hold dosing until platelet count is confirmed. DUVYZAT can cause elevations in triglycerides. In Study 1 [see Clinical Studies (14) ] , hypertriglyceridemia occurred in 23% of patients treated with DUVYZAT (one of whom had familial hypertriglyceridemia) compared to 7% of patients on placebo. High triglycerides (i.e., levels greater than 300 mg/dL) resulted in discontinuation and led to dosage modification in 2% and 8%, respectively, of patients treated with DUVYZAT. Monitor triglycerides at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and then every 6 months thereafter. Modify the dosage if fasting triglycerides are verified > 300 mg/dL [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . Treatment with DUVYZAT should be discontinued if triglycerides remain elevated despite adequate dietary intervention and dosage adjustment. Gastrointestinal disturbances, including diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, and abdominal pain were common adverse reactions in DUVYZAT clinical trials in DMD. In Study 1, diarrhea was reported in 37% of patients treated with DUVYZAT (with 1 severe case reported) compared to 20% of patients on placebo. Diarrhea usually occurred within the first few weeks of initiation of treatment with DUVYZAT. Vomiting and nausea, sometimes severe and usually occurring within the first 2 months of treatment, occurred in 32% of patients treated with DUVYZAT compared to 18% of patients on placebo. Abdominal pain occurred in 34% of patients treated with DUVYZAT compared to 25% of patients on placebo. One case of abdominal pain was serious. Antiemetics or antidiarrheal medications may be considered during treatment with DUVYZAT. Fluid and electrolytes should be replaced as needed to prevent dehydration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] . Modify the dosage of DUVYZAT in patients with moderate or severe diarrhea, and treatment should be discontinued if significant symptoms persist [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . DUVYZAT can cause prolongation of QTc interval [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ] . Avoid use of DUVYZAT in patients who are at an increased risk for ventricular arrhythmias (including torsades de pointes), such as those with congenital long QT syndrome, coronary artery disease, electrolyte disturbance [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] , concomitant use of other medicinal products known to cause QT prolongation [see Drug Interactions (7.2) ] . Obtain ECGs prior to initiating treatment with DUVYZAT in patients with underlying cardiac disease or in patients who are taking concomitant medications that cause QT prolongation [see Dosage and Administration (2.1) ] .

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described below and elsewhere in the labeling:

Closely monitor when DUVYZAT is used in combination with an oral CYP3A4 sensitive substrate or a sensitive substrate of the OCT2 transporter, for which a small change in substrate plasma concentration may lead to serious toxicities. ( 7.1 ) Avoid concomitant use with other drugs that prolong the QTc interval; monitor ECG if concomitant use cannot be avoided. ( 7.2 ) CYP3A4 Sensitive Substrates Givinostat is a weak intestinal CYP3A4 inhibitor [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Closely monitor when DUVYZAT is used in combination with orally administered CYP3A4 sensitive substrates for which a small change in substrate plasma concentration may lead to serious toxicities. OCT2 Sensitive Substrates Givinostat is a weak inhibitor of the renal uptake transporter OCT2 [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Closely monitor when DUVYZAT is used in combination with drugs known as a sensitive substrate of the OCT2 transporter for which a small change in substrate plasma concentration may lead to serious toxicities. Drugs that Prolong the QTc Interval Avoid concomitant use of DUVYZAT with other product(s) with a known potential to prolong the QTc interval. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, obtain ECGs when initiating, during concomitant use, and as clinically indicated [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] . Withhold DUVYZAT if the QTc interval is > 500 ms or the change from baseline is > 60 ms [see Dosage and Administration (2.1) ] . DUVYZAT causes QTc interval prolongation [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ] . Concomitant use of DUVYZAT with other products that prolong the QTc interval may result in a greater increase in the QTc interval and adverse reactions associated with QTc interval prolongation, including Torsade de pointes, other serious arrythmias, and sudden death [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] .

Pregnancy: Based on animal data, may cause fetal harm. ( 8.1 ) Hepatic Impairment: Exposure to givinostat is expected to be increased. ( 8.6 ) Risk Summary DUVYZAT is indicated for the treatment of DMD, which is a disease of predominantly young male patients. Therefore, there are no adequate data available to assess the use of DUVYZAT in pregnant women. In animal studies, oral administration of givinostat during organogenesis resulted in decreased fetal body weight and increased structural variations; oral administration during pregnancy and lactation resulted in increased embryofetal and offspring mortality and neurobehavioral changes in the offspring. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Oral administration of givinostat (0, 40, 80, or 160 mg/kg/day) to pregnant rats throughout organogenesis resulted in reduced fetal body weight at the highest dose tested and increases in the incidence of skeletal and visceral variations at the mid and high doses. The no-effect dose (40 mg/kg/day) for adverse effects on embryofetal development was associated with maternal plasma exposures (AUC) lower than that in humans at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 53.2 mg twice daily. Oral administration of givinostat (0, 40, 80, or 160 mg/kg/day) to pregnant rabbits throughout organogenesis resulted in maternal death at the highest dose tested, resulting in too few fetuses to evaluate. No adverse effects on embryofetal development were observed at the low and mid doses. Plasma exposures (AUC) at the higher no-effect dose (80 mg/kg) for adverse effects on embryofetal development were approximately 4 times that in humans at the MRHD. Oral administration of givinostat (0, 40, 80, or 160 mg/kg/day) to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation resulted in increases in embryofetal mortality, stillbirths, and offspring mortality at the highest dose tested. When offspring were tested postweaning (postnatal day 49), adverse effects on behavior (decreased open field activity) were observed at all doses. A no-effect dose for adverse developmental effects was not identified; plasma exposures (AUC) at the lowest dose tested were lower than that in humans at the MRHD. Risk Summary There are no human or animal data to assess the effect of DUVYZAT or its metabolites on milk production, the presence of givinostat in milk, or the effects on the breastfed infant. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for DUVYZAT and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from DUVYZAT or from the underlying maternal condition. No human data are available on the effect of DUVYZAT on reproductive potential. Animal studies indicate possible adverse effects on reproduction [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1) ] . The safety and effectiveness of DUVYZAT in children aged 6 years and older have been established [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients below the age of 6 years have not been established. Juvenile Animal Data In a study in juvenile male and female rats, givinostat was orally administered at doses of 0, 10, 20, or 40 mg/kg on postnatal days (PND) 7 to 27, doses of 0, 15, 30, or 60 mg/kg/day on PNDs 28 to 48, and doses of 0, 15, 45, or 90 mg/kg/day on PNDs 49 to 92. Adverse effects on behavior (increased locomotor activity and decreased auditory startle prepulse inhibition) were observed at the high dose at the end of the dosing period. Adverse effects on locomotor activity, but not prepulse inhibition, were observed at the end of the recovery period primarily at the mid and high doses. Persistent decreases in bone density were observed at all doses tested. A no-effect dose for adverse effects on postnatal development was not identified; the lowest dose tested was associated with plasma exposures (AUC) less than that in humans at the MRHD. DMD is largely a disease of children and young adults; therefore, there is no experience with DUVYZAT in geriatric DMD patients. A dedicated clinical study was not conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of DUVYZAT in subjects with hepatic impairment, and no recommendation for dosage adjustment can be made for patients with hepatic impairment. Because DUVYZAT is eliminated mainly through hepatic metabolism, hepatic impairment is expected to increase the exposure of givinostat [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .

DUVYZAT (givinostat) oral suspension is a white to off-white or faintly pink, peach-cream flavored suspension. It is supplied in an amber polyethylene terephthalate bottle closed with a high-density polyethylene child-resistant, screw cap with low-density polyethylene syringe adapter, containing 140 mL of oral suspension (NDC 11797-110-01). Each mL contains 8.86 mg of givinostat. DUVYZAT is supplied in a carton, NDC 11797-110-02, containing: one bottle containing 140 mL oral suspension one 5 mL graduated oral syringe Prescribing Information and Instructions for Use The Medication Guide is available at www.duvyzat.com/medication-guide . Store at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F), excursions permitted to 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature]. Do not freeze. Store upright. Discard any unused DUVYZAT remaining after 60 days of first opening of the bottle.

DUVYZAT is a histone deacetylase inhibitor. The precise mechanism by which DUVYZAT exerts its effect in patients with DMD is unknown. Muscle Fat Fraction as Assessed by MR Spectroscopy The percentage of fat fraction present in the vastus lateralis muscles (VLM) of the thigh was measured in Study 1 [see Clinical Studies (14) ] using magnetic resonance spectroscopy. At 18 months, for the patients with VLM fat fraction baseline in the range of >5% to ≤30%, a mean increase (absolute difference from baseline levels) of VLM fat fraction was 7.48% in the DUVYZAT-treated patients compared to a 10.89% increase in patients who received placebo. Cardiac Electrophysiology The largest mean increase in QTc interval of 13.6 ms (upper confidence interval of 17.1 ms) occurred 5 hours after administration of givinostat 265.8 mg to healthy subjects (approximately 5 times the 53.2 mg dose recommended for DMD patients weighing 60 kg or more) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] . Givinostat exhibits linear kinetics with the studied dose range. Systemic exposure to givinostat was dose-proportional across the therapeutic dose range. Steady-state concentrations are achieved within 5 to 7 days after twice daily dosing. An accumulation of less than 2-fold was observed for givinostat after twice daily administration. Absorption Absolute bioavailability was not determined. The time to maximum plasma concentrations is about 2 to 3 hours after oral administration. Effect of Food A high fat standard meal resulted in an increase in the exposure (about 40% increase in area under the plasma concentration-time curve [AUC] and about 23% increase in maximum plasma concentration [C max ]) and a delay in time to maximum concentration (T max ) from 2 to 3 hours [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] . Distribution Givinostat is approximately 96% bound to human plasma proteins and is slightly partitioned into red blood cells (blood to plasma ratio = 1.3). Elimination In plasma, apparent elimination half-life of givinostat is about 6 hours. Metabolism In vitro studies with human enzymatic preparations together with animal metabolism showed that givinostat is extensively metabolized forming several metabolites. CYP450 and UGTs are not involved in the main metabolic reactions. Four major metabolites, which are not active with respect to the efficacy of givinostat, have been characterized in humans and preclinical species. Excretion The elimination of givinostat is likely dependent on metabolism followed by renal and biliary excretion of the resulting metabolites as suggested by the mass balance study in the rat. Urinary excretion of givinostat in humans is minimal (<3% of the dose). Specific Populations The population PK analyses show that the PK of givinostat can be affected by body weight, while age has no effects on the pharmacokinetics of givinostat. Patients with Hepatic Impairment The pharmacokinetics and safety of givinostat have not been studied in patients with hepatic impairment. Givinostat is highly metabolized and therefore the impact of hepatic impairment on the exposure of givinostat cannot be excluded [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6) ] . Patients with Renal Impairment The pharmacokinetics and safety of givinostat have not been studied in patients with renal impairment. However, renal impairment is not expected to impact the exposure of givinostat because renal excretion is not a significant route of givinostat elimination. Drug Interaction Studies In Vitro Givinostat is not a substrate of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes and uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT). Therefore, coadministration of drugs that are inducers or inhibitors of major metabolizing enzymes will not significantly affect the systemic exposure of givinostat. Givinostat and its metabolites ITF2374, ITF2375, ITF2440, and ITF2563 were investigated as inhibitors of the main CYP450 subfamilies, and the results indicated no inhibition is expected of CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2B6, 2C8, and 3A4. Givinostat showed induction of CYP1A2, 2B6, and CYP3A4. In vitro studies indicate that givinostat is a substrate of the intestinal transporters: P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). Givinostat showed the potential to inhibit the intestinal transporter P-gp (MDR1) and BCRP based on in vitro results. However, these interactions are not expected to be clinically meaningful. In Vivo A weak inhibition of the renal uptake transporter OCT2 by givinostat was seen in clinical trials by creatinine (OCT2 substate) measurements [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] . A clinical drug interaction study was conducted in healthy volunteers to assess the effects of coadministration of givinostat with other drugs and results indicated that: givinostat has a weak inhibition of the intestinal CYP3A4 enzyme based on the exposure of a CYP3A4 substrate, midazolam, [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] givinostat does not likely inhibit P-gp transporters based on the exposure of dabigatran strong P-gp inhibitors have a weak effect on givinostat based on exposure of clarithromycin, which had an increase in C max by about 40% without a significant change of AUC. The effect of BCRP inhibitors on givinostat PK was not studied in a clinical study. However, the effect of BCRP inhibitors on givinostat PK is expected to be smaller than P-gp inhibitors based on the comparison of the two transporters mediated efflux ratios determined in the in vitro cell models.

Carcinogenesis Studies to assess the carcinogenic potential of givinostat have not been conducted. Mutagenesis Givinostat was positive in a bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay, and negative in an in vitro mammalian cell (mouse lymphoma) mutation assay, an in vitro chromosomal aberration assay in mammalian (human lymphocytes) cells, and an in vivo gene mutation assay (with Pig-a endpoints) in Big Blue transgenic rats. Impairment of Fertility Oral administration of givinostat (0, 40, 80, or 160 mg/kg) prior to and throughout mating in male and female rats and continuing to gestation day 7 in females, resulted in no adverse effects on fertility. However, there was an increase in corpora lutea at the mid and high doses and increased pre- and postimplantation loss at all doses. A no-effect dose for adverse effects on early embryonic development was not identified; plasma exposures (AUC) at the lowest dose tested were lower than that in humans at the maximum recommended human dose of 53.2 mg twice daily.

The effectiveness of DUVYZAT for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) was evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 18-month study (Study 1; NCT02851797). A total of 179 patients were randomized 2:1 to receive either DUVYZAT (n = 118) or placebo (n = 61). A weight-based dose regimen was applied [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] . The study included male patients 6 years of age and older with a confirmed diagnosis of DMD who were ambulatory and on a stable dosage of corticosteroids. At baseline, patients had a mean age of 9.8 years, 90% were White, 3% were Asian, 3% were Black. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline to Month 18 in 4-stair climb (4SC) time for DUVYZAT compared to placebo. The 4SC is a measure of muscle function that tests the time it takes to climb 4 stairs. A secondary efficacy endpoint was change from baseline to Month 18 in physical function as assessed by the North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA). The primary analysis population was based on a prespecified range of baseline muscle fat fraction as determined by MR spectroscopy. Patients treated with DUVYZAT showed statistically significant less decline in the 4-stair climb compared to placebo (see Table 4 ). Patients treated with givinostat experienced less worsening on the NSAA compared to placebo, which was nominally significant but not statistically significant based on the prespecified multiplicity adjustment. Table 4.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE DUVYZAT [doo' vi zat] (givinostat) oral suspension This Instructions for Use contains information on how to take DUVYZAT. Ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist if you have any questions on how to take DUVYZAT. Each DUVYZAT carton contains (see Figure A ): 1 (one) bottle of 140 mL oral suspension 1 (one) 5 mL oral syringe Figure A Important information you need to know before you take DUVYZAT: Keep these instructions for future use. Do not share DUVYZAT with anyone else. Do not mix DUVYZAT with water or other liquids. Ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist to show you how to measure your prescribed dose. Do not throw away the oral syringe. Always use the oral syringe that comes with DUVYZAT to measure your prescribed dose. Use the medicine in the bottle within 60 days after you first open it. Throw away any unused DUVYZAT remaining in this bottle after 60 days. Write the date you open the bottle on the bottle label. How to take DUVYZAT: Take DUVYZAT exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Take DUVYZAT by mouth (orally) 2 times each day. The dose of DUVYZAT is based on how much you weigh. Take DUVYZAT with food. Take DUVYZAT using the oral syringe that comes with DUVYZAT. Remove the DUVYZAT bottle and the oral syringe from the carton (see Figure A above). Step 1. Make sure the bottle is closed properly and shake the bottle for at least 30 seconds by continuously turning the bottle up and down (see Figure B ). Stop when the DUVYZAT oral suspension is mixed well and looks the same throughout. Figure B Step 2. Open the bottle by pressing down on the bottle cap and turning it to the left (counter-clockwise) (see Figure C ). Do not throw away the bottle cap. Figure C Step 3. For first time use only: Take the provided oral syringe to be used and firmly insert the tip of the oral syringe into the bottle adapter opening (see Figure D ). For all other uses: Take the provided oral syringe to be used, push the plunger all the way down (to remove the air) and firmly insert the tip of the oral syringe into the bottle adapter opening (see Figure D ). Figure D Step 4. While holding the oral syringe in place, turn the bottle upside down. Slowly pull the plunger down to pull back a small amount of the suspension. Then push the plunger all the way up to remove any air bubbles (see Figure E ). Figure E Step 5. Slowly pull the plunger down until the bottom of the plunger is even with the markings on the oral syringe for the prescribed dose of DUVYZAT (see Figure F ). If your prescribed dose is more than 5 mL, you will need to use the same oral syringe more than one time. Figure F Step 6. While keeping the plunger in the same position, turn the bottle upright, and place it carefully on a flat surface. Remove the oral syringe by gently twisting or pulling it out from the bottle adapter opening. Do not hold the oral syringe by the plunger because the plunger may come out (see Figure G ). Take or give DUVYZAT right away after it is drawn up into the oral syringe. Do not store the filled oral syringe. Figure G Step 7. Check that the prescribed volume (mL) of DUVYZAT has been drawn up into the oral syringe (see Figure H ). Figure H shows an example of a 5 mL dose. Your dose may be a different volume. Figure H Step 8. The child or adult should sit upright to take a dose of DUVYZAT. Place the tip of the oral syringe against the inside of the cheek. Slowly push the plunger all the way down until there is no more medicine left in the oral syringe. If your prescribed dose is more than 5 mL, repeat Step 3 through Step 8 to give the remaining part of the dose. Step 9. After use, replace the bottle cap and turn the bottle cap to the right (clockwise) to close the bottle (see Figure I ). Figure I Step 10. Wash the oral syringe in water and allow to dry.
